What happens if you create the cash account before you import to it and select 
PEN to be the currency it is denominated in? Since QIF does not transport any 
currency information it  should import the data w/o problem.  Make sure to 
have a conversion rate entered into KMyMoney which covers the past. Otherwise, 
the categories go a bit crazy.  YMMV
